I am currently running jt1134/teamhacksung's ICS Build 3 ROM.
The problem I'm having is that every time I make or accept a call, there is an earsplitting double beep noise.
I do not know if this can be turned off, or if it is a normal MTD thing (since I've had it happen on CM7 too), but it's really annoying.
Is there any way to turn this off?
I've looked but haven't found any way yet.
It sounds like what you're describing is typical "Phantom Ring". That and some problems I had with speaker phone audio are the reasons I left bleeding edge stuff like MTD behind and now run TSM Resurrection. I never did find a cure for it, and gave up looking for one. Some phones it affects differently. I didn't feel like the benefits outweighed the inconveniences.
I don't think it's the phantom ring. I've had that before on CM7 too. This is more of a "call connected" or "call ended" beep.

Hmmm. Maybe try a different modem?
It's done it on different modems too but it seems to have stopped for now. Maybe it was just a glitch of some sort.

I searched the forum but could not find this. Please bear with me!
While I get incoming calls in my X10i, the phone sometimes rings and sometimes doesn't. This results in lot of missed calls. Very weirdly, if the phone rings in the first call, in the next call, it might not, or vice versa. This happens without any specific trend. Any help, please?
Secondly, can anyone please tell how to check the proximity sensor? I somehow feel mine is not working, as previously, the phone would light up on taking out of cover. Now it doesn't.
Any help any one?

Then can it be that some downloaded app is creating this problem? I dont have any volume controller app, but can some downloaded games or other app doing this to the phone?
So the ringer problem is not mine alone. Can a software update fix this?
are you using a task killer???? it seems to be the root of most evils... suggest switching any autokilling off if you are.

Yes I am using ATK. But its being used for a long time, and the problem surfaced just 5/6 days back. Still what do you say, I uninstall it and see? This problem is giving me quite a headache, as I am missing many important calls.
Not getting much help.
I uninstalled atk, a few games, but the problem persists. So what, a software update. Someone pls help, as am missing out lot of important calls.

While on an outgoing call, I can hear my contacts, but my contacts cannot hear me... Anyone else has/had this problem and know of a solution? Btw, I'm on the 351 build and rooted. Thanks in advance!

What steps have you taken to troubleshoot this?
Tried with the speakerphone on?
Tried with a wired headset?
Tried with a bluetooth headset?
Did you recently install any apps?
When did this start?
This started a few months ago (even with stock), but I always thought It had something to do with "Total Recall" (a phone recorder app)... but after finally uninstalling Total Recall and clearing cache, the problem continued. I also tried everything u mentioned and everything works perfectly. It's only when I use just the phone its self to make calls I run into this prob.

Install StreakMod Recovery and make a nandroid backup.
Reset your phone using the reset in the settings under Privacy. Test the phone. If it works resinstall your apps one by one to check. If you still have the same problem after a reset with no apps installed I would suspect a hardware problem.
Will give it a shot. Thanks.

Do you ever just bump the mute button with your cheek? This is a good possibility if they can't hear you halfway through the conversation (sometimes my head falls off the light sensor causing the screen to turn on).
You know what?... that's a good possibility. Thanks

Yes I have the same problem. I traded my HTc desire for dell streak stock rom not rooted. 5 inch is great, really great. But at leat one in seven calls I can hear the other person, but that person not me.
The lock screen is also unresponsive, same 1 out of 7, I just can't answer, because the slider won't slide.
Sometimes the screen is also unresponsive in general, especially the lower part, I have to change to landscape mode and then hit the kill all apps button, after wich the screen works fine again.
First I thought these were problems caused by the stock music player, but now I dunno anymore. (music quality is much better than on the desire by the way)
also bluetooth calling works really bad. People always complain about the echo of their voice. I tried 3 differents headsets. Bluetooth music works great though.
Maybe this streak is just bad model. No wonder The guy wanted to trade.
I faced the same issue on my Streak5. For almost 3 weeks i was chasing this issue and was absoultely fed-up. Actually i had recently changed the sim card for my telephone operator, and i thought that was the issue, so i fought with the telecom operator to get it changed but no difference. Then i suspected some software is screwing up, so i went through all the installed software and jotted down every software that had some audio/mic relation. Finally in the list i most suspected a call recorder software called "Call Recorder Free" by Clever Mobile and BOOM ! I uninstalled it and that was the culprit indeed ! My phone is working perfectly fine now ! Please beware of this or any such software.
you guys could try to use the olleh 407 ROM or use the custom ROM where usually custom ROM is the best alternative for streak...
Hiya guys. Yes i am the dumbass who dropped a dumbell onto the galaxy. Phone is now fixed .......moving on
Anyways i get complaints of an echo noise off the person on the recieving end everytime i use a protective case to cover the device, but if i disable noise cancellation everything works fine echo free.
MY QUESTION: is there a way of disabling noise cancellation differently rather than having to do it during a call everytime which can get rather annoying!
Thanks in advance

On mine, it stays disabled until/unless I re-enable it.

If you update to KG1 (2.3.4) you will have the option. Once you get on a call and its answered, the icon / option shows up.
Some confusion to whether if its OFF by default and you can turn it on OR its ON by default and you can turn it off.
Anyway, its there once you get on 2.3.4
didn't find the option in any where...
This is the only thing that bugs me about this fantastic phone!

My brother has this exact same problem. We tried everything except hard reset...
His solution....buy a new case lol.
Its random I guess coz my wife and I also have SGS2 and we use that case just fine.

Im using VillainRom 2.0 and its OFF by default, when you press Menu and then press NOISE REDUCTION OFF, it actually turns it ON.
I think the option is saying that the NR is off, then if u press it, it will be ON.
Tested myself with my brother on a noisy street, sound is more silent when I press NOISE REDUCTION OFF.
I have tried two different cases and both encounter same problem. Arghhhh very frustrating!

If the case covers the bottom area (mic) I think you will have this problem. Be very interested to know if hard reset mat fix
No the area around the mic and charger port are cut open so that cant be the problem

The noise cancellation should be at the top of the phone. Right next to the ear phones jack slot. For my GSII, the Noise Cancellation cannot be disabled permanently. It is always enabled whenever a call is made/received. I've to manually disable it once the the call is connected. Unfortunately I'm still finding out solutions. Will share of course

Still have problem that I have to click on button

to the TOP!!!!! this issue is annoying
I have the same problem with noise cancelling and echo, always have to turn it off each call.
Any solution?
Here is my question: When the phone rings I get my ring tone that I've customized along with a standard sounding ring (unwanted). The unwanted ring continues to ring and ring even after answering the phone. Is this a stupid setting I'm missing? Anyone run into this before? It is driving me crazy.
Phone Specs: Samsung Fascinate running CWM7 nightly 33. I'm pretty customized with GO Homescreen, GO Contacts, GO SMS, Audible, and Beyond Pod (I can't really think of any other apps that effect the audio).
Ideas?
Your Experiencing the phantom ring...i'm not on the nightly cm build but I am running the newest glitch kernel, the one with the audio fix and the new green recovery and I got a phantom ring that lasted throughout the call and it stopped when I hung up..it only happened once and hasn't happened again. So since i'm not on the nightly builds I don't know if its an issue that has come back, because it was fixed for a while. Like I said I did get 1 phantom ring and didn't even reboot or anything and it hasn't come back. I know its not a setting your missing...try a different kernel for cm7 or try an older build and see if the problem persists.

Thanks. I will down grade to a older nightly first.

Hi guys, extremely frustrating problem I have.
It has happened on two different ROM's so I don't think it's a glitch with the ROM as such, but of a file or possible app in my phone.
I have even used rom toolbox to delete every notification sound, yet this ghost noise still occurs.
It usually happens after I unlock my phone, the noise resembles something similair to the notification sound 'deneb'
No idea what it is, or how I can shut it up, once again it sometimes happens, othertimes it doesn't.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
